ANTIOCH -- An Antioch man wounded in a shooting at an apartment complex earlier that killed another man earlier this month has been arrested on suspicion of murder, police said Monday.

Police arrested Gary Bryant Jr. while he was in a hospital last week recovering from wounds he suffered when bullets flew at Delta View Apartments just after 2:30 p.m. on July 8. The shooting at the complex, in the 3900 block Delta Fair Boulevard, killed 23-year-old Pittsburg resident Kenneth Wayne Cooper Jr.

Bryant has been arraigned on charges of murder, robbery and being a felon in possession of a firearm. Police said he was taken to the County Jail in Martinez over the weekend, but the jail did not list him as an inmate on Monday morning.

The shooting happened after a dispute between the two men at one end of the complex, Antioch police Sgt. Santiago Castillo said. Police arriving at the scene found Cooper dead in his car at the other end of the complex.

Police said they found Bryant about two blocks away at another apartment complex on Hudson Court. He was wounded at the apartments, police said, but fled the scene. He underwent surgery to save his life.

The killing was the fifth homicide in Antioch this year, all of them since April. It also capped a bloody 11-day period in which 12 other people were wounded by gunfire in the city.

In the shooting's aftermath, police launched a proactive violent crime suppression effort, with targeted enforcements every week. There have been no reported shootings since then.
